a) Menu entries have a rule about "...". Only those that request extra interaction must have the dots. Non interactive things have no dots. b) Then make it disabled. c) Maybe over menu? Maybe in a global place? This issue is going to happen with any menu entry that pops nothing, be it a filter or whatever. Should everything start poping dialogs now?
